    El dorado top hat and 5 skull band

    I had purchased this hat and same band seperstely prior. I love this hat. The band that comes on the combo but is definitively not the same quality band that yiu get when bought separately. But the combo prise reflects. I’ll be buying a new band. Just wish I would have relized before purchase. Other than the cheaper band I’m definitely satisfied with the hat

    Absolutely Perfect!

    Everything about my experience was stellar. The hat is extremely well made, great craftsmanship, quality leather, precise attention to detail. I had unfortunately ordered the wrong size, but the return and exchange process was almost effortless. My call to customer service was answered quickly, professionally and courteously. They kept in touch with me every step of the way and I got the replacement hat in record time.

    Best of all my fiancé LOVES his new hat! I will definitely be ordering from this company again and I can’t recommend them highly enough!

    Thanks for such a wonderful experience and product!!
